East Japan Railway Company (東日本旅客鉄道株式会社 Higashi-Nihon Ryokaku Tetsudō Kabushiki-gaisha?) is the largest passenger railway company in the world and one of the seven Japan Railways Group companies. The company name is officially abbreviated as JR East in English, and as JR Higashi-Nihon (JR東日本?) in Japanese. The company's headquarters are in Yoyogi, Shibuya, Tokyo.

History
JR East was incorporated on April 1, 1987 after being spun off from the government-run Japanese National Railways. The spin-off was nominally "privatization", as the company was actually a wholly owned subsidiary of the government-owned JNR Settlement Corporation for several years, and was not completely sold to the public until 2002.
Following the breakup, JR East ran the operations on former JNR lines in the Greater Tokyo Area, the Tōhoku region, and surrounding areas.
Lines
Its railway lines primarily serve Kantō and Tōhoku regions, along with adjacent areas in Niigata, Nagano, Yamanashi and Shizuoka prefectures.
Shinkansen
JR East operates all of the Shinkansen, high speed rail lines, north of Tokyo.
Akita Shinkansen (Morioka - Akita)
Nagano Shinkansen (Tokyo - Nagano)
Jōetsu Shinkansen (Tokyo - Niigata)
Tōhoku Shinkansen (Tokyo - Sendai - Hachinohe - Shin Aomori)
Yamagata Shinkansen (Fukushima - Shinjō)
The Tokyo–Osaka Tōkaidō Shinkansen is owned and operated by the Central Japan Railway Company, although it stops at several JR East stations.
Kantō regional lines
